Investigation of the Fundamental Plane Relationship For the Evolution of the Elliptical and Lenticular Galaxies [PDF]
The Fundamental Plane relates the effective radius and surface brightness of an early-type galaxy to its velocity dispersion. It is important in understanding galaxy formation and evolution processes. The present work aims to investigate this relation as

A search for the most massive galaxies: double trouble? [PDF]
We describe the results of a search for galaxies with large ({approx}> 350 kms{sup -1}) velocity dispersions. The largest systems we have found appear to be the extremes of the early-type galaxy population: compared to other galaxies with similar ...

Two Candidates for Dual AGN in Dwarf-dwarf Galaxy Mergers
Dual active galactic nuclei (DAGN) are important for understanding galaxy-merger-triggered fueling of black holes and the hierarchical growth of structures.

Hot Gaseous Halos in Early Type Galaxies
The hot gas in early type galaxies (ETGs) plays a crucial role in their formation and evolution. As the hot gas is often extended to the outskirts beyond the optical size, the large scale structural features identified by Chandra (including cavities ...

Morphological Distribution of Galaxies in Some Nearby Clusters
We study the morphological distribution of galaxies in some nearby clusters, using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey – Data Release 9 (SDSS-DR9). The segregation between early-type galaxies and late-type ones is investigated in g – r / u – g color space ...

Age-density relation of Main galaxies at fixed parameters or for different galaxy families
Using two volume-limited Main galaxy samples of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 10 (SDSS DR10), we examine the environmental dependence of galaxy age at fixed parameters or for different galaxy families.

CLEAR: Survey Overview, Data Analysis, and Products
We present an overview of the CANDELS Ly α Emission At Reionization (CLEAR) survey. CLEAR is a 130 orbit program of the Hubble Space Telescope using the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) IR G102 grism.

Galaxy Zoo:dust in spiral galaxies [PDF]
We investigate the effect of dust on spiral galaxies by measuring the inclination dependence of optical colours for 24 276 well-resolved Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) galaxies visually classified via the Galaxy Zoo project.

The Initial Mass Function and Other Stellar Properties Across the Core of the Hydra I Cluster
The Hydra I cluster offers an excellent opportunity to study and compare the relic old stellar populations in the core of its two brightest galaxies. In addition, the differing kinematics of the two galaxies allows a test of the local validity of general

Probing the effect of the protocluster environment on galaxy morphology at z = 2.23
Context. As galaxies evolve in dense cluster and protocluster environments, they interact and quench their star formation. This gradually transforms the dominant galaxy population from star-forming galaxies to quiescent red galaxies.
